IDEA: Labor day every Monday in September

America ranks low in average vacation time compared to other countries. To make up for this, let's declare every Monday in September to be Labor Day.

Let me know how this idea flies with Jay... ;)

We currently have no Jay equivalent in my group, so we can run amok and make rules like this! (haha, i wish).

Who's Jay? I'm guessing it's someone from back in the day when the Trib wasn't caving in on itself like a dying star :-/

its true. Most of Europe gets about 4 weeks off. And they still celebrate certain saints days and Assumption of the Virgin and All Saints Day and stuff...and they allegedly more secular than the US!

There's even a grassroots movement to get more vacation time in the States

forget just September. Let's change the name, "Monday" to "Laborday" and have three day weekends for the entire year.
